I wear brighter clothes for video interviews and use more facial expressions. Make sure you have good lighting!

Yeah most importantly - definitely do a camera test run first. Prop up your laptop so the camera is at eye level and bring some lamps near your computer (but not in frame) to lighten up your face. Make sure you’re in a quiet space without background noise, and make sure your WiFi signal is strong. Additionally, be mentally prepared to switch to your phone if something happens with the connection on your laptop (some people get really frazzled by this. Don’t be that person.)

I've never worked on anything for TikTok and hope I never have to. TikTok is from hell. I was on it one time for about 10 minutes and could feel myself becoming mentally unwell in just those 10 minutes. The human brain is not designed to deal with the sheer amount of sensory overload that app gives you. I'm pretty sure TikTok is one of the main reasons we are constantly hearing about how much Gen Z struggles with mental health.
